19.01.2022 Weekend, Monday, Tuesday..... blink....... last Sunday of the holidays. Did anyone experience the holidays like this? Because I sure did! Remember, if you’ve forgotten to do the shopping for school lunches you can order Subway for tomorrow via QKR up until 9pm tonight. What a life saver! ...

17.01.2022 UPDATE: We have just been told that we are not allowed to hold our scheduled pupil free day on Monday. The Dept has issued a directive that all schools (except those closed by SA Health) MUST be open Monday and Tuesday regardless of previous arrangements. This means we will return to school on Monday 23rd. ... We are sorry for any confusion this has caused. ................................................... Wow, what a crazy few days! Thank you so much for your support and patience over the past few days, we understand how stressful it has been. Enjoy your weekend and we will see you all on Monday

15.01.2022 Some little snippets of todays first transition visit for our 2021 Reception class. They made crowns and got to meet this years reception classes and had a great time.

If you missed the first visit, don't worry there is two more to go, and if you haven't yet enrolled for 2021 please give us a call so we can get you enrolled asap.

10.01.2022 Thanks to all our parents and families for supporting our Fathers Day Stall today. Big thanks especially to our Governing Council members for manning the stall, some of whom stayed all day to help out. Our voucher system also worked well and we’ve had some great feedback. Look out for this option on future stalls. Unfortunately we forgot to take photos so no sneak peeks for Dads trying to guess what their present might be. ... We had a very successful day and hope all the Dads, Grandads, Pops, Stepdads and Carers love their gifts as much as the children loved buying them.

10.01.2022 I know, I know, it can't be holidays ALREADY? Holy batman, this term has felt super quick. Last day of term 3 is NEXT Friday 25th September. Don't forget the last day of term is always early pick up - 2:05pm. ... Day one of term 4 is Monday October 12th.

06.01.2022 Today we are celebrating Reconciliation Day at EPS. The theme for this year is In this Together. This morning at assembly we had a flag raising and opening ceremony. A friend of the school, Jaiya, gave the Welcome to Country acknowledgement. Celestine, who is one of our parents, and her daughter Alexis volunteered their time to give presentations to our students about Aboriginal culture, traditions and customs. With the Upper Primary students they also discussed how racis...m affects Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders. Within their classes the students also participated in activities such as stick weaving, dot painting and discussions about what Reconciliation means to them. We also used traditional Aboriginal music including didgeridoo’s for our return to class music. Thank you to Cele, Alexis and Jaiya for helping us today and sharing your knowledge.

06.01.2022 Spring has sprung in the courtyard garden! The joint effort between our OSHC and our gardening group have sprung new life with the warmer weather. This is such a gorgeous space in the warmer months. Make sure you have a look next time you are passing by.

02.01.2022 Corey and his garden group have been doing some harvesting of the spinach today, the carrots are also looking great.

02.01.2022 Just a bit of a heads up to new and prospective families. We are sorry that we are unable to run our planned school tours due to Covid-19 restrictions this term. We would like you to have as much information about school life at EPS as possible. We encourage you to read our parent information book and also have a look at our website https://www.enfieldps.sa.edu.au/ . Parents and Caregivers are also welcome to call the school office to book a time for a phone chat with a senio...r staff member or, if required, a face to face meeting. We are continuing to plan for pre-entry visits for children enrolled in Reception for 2021. These will be held on Thursday mornings of weeks 5, 6 and 7 in term 4. Early next term, formal invitations will be mailed to families who have submitted their completed enrolment forms and required documents. Please make sure you have submitted your enrolment form so your child can take part in pre-entry visits next term in readiness for a smooth transition to school life.
